I heard the clicking noise coming from the rear also, especially in reverse. About 3 months ago I took it to the dealer and they re-torqued the axle nut. That seemed to do the trick. Yesterday I heard the same noise. I guess I'll take it back and have them look at it again.

Spray some penetrating oil in to the splines via the staking keyway and save yourself the multiple trips to the dealer. It takes a few hours to soak in before you can start enjoying the new found peace and quiet
BTW, I have done it and it works great.

took my car to the dealer today just to have some ass clown mechanic check it out. he said it was becuase my right tire was worn out. i called bs but decided to put my other set of rims on anyway. the noise was still there.

while putting my rims on i rotated the tire to see if the other side would turn in the opposite direction. IT DIDNT!!! they just rotated in the same direction! doesnt that mean that my LSD is busted?!
